Is anything ever free in Singapore
?
"You pay for what you get" - has always been the philosophy of this
fickle minded government.
What they pay you tomorrow, will be taken back by them the next
day.
In any case, they have already started to take back what they have
paid to every Singapore towards the end of 2006 - all the nonsense
of Economic Bonus Shares are wiped out with the increase in the GST
from 5% to 7%.
Hospital and Medical Fees, as well as Transport fares have gone up
in 2006 - soon after the Elections, and those increased pinch are
almost forgotten as we are numbed by the daily amount also being
paid for the cost of food and utilities.
While COE is coming down, new ERP gantry has begun to populate all
over the island, and with the gantry turned on at the most
unexpected time and along the most unexpected road ways.
Sweeties soon ? Think again and be prepared for worst things to
come.
